Telespazio Germany is committed to responsible company management in line with laws, regulations and ethical principles. Integrity is one of the core values of Telespazio Germany and is the foundation of all of our actions. We understand the importance of maintaining a workplace environment that thrives on transparency, integrity, and accountability. As part of our commitment to fostering these values, we have implemented a Whistleblowing Platform to provide a secure and confidential channel for employees to report any concerns or wrongdoing within the organization, aligning with the standards set by the EU Whistleblowing Directive and the German Act on the Better Protection of Whistleblowers (Hinweisgeberschutzgesetz (HinSchG)).
The reporting system should not be used to make false accusations against others or report information that you know is untrue.
What is the Whistleblowing Platform?
The Whistleblowing Platform is a confidential internal reporting channel that uses an encryption system to ensure the confidentiality of identity of the Whistleblower, the person involved, the person mentioned in the report, the content of the report and the relevant documentation. This allows the competent office to communicate with the Whistleblower by providing them with an acknowledgement of receipt of the report and feedback on the action taken or intended to be taken.
Reports can be submitted via the Whistleblowing Platform, either in writing or orally. For the latter, the Whistleblower may, as an alternative, attach an audio file or request a face-to-face meeting with the competent office.
How does it Work?
Access the Platform: The Whistleblowing Platform can be accessed through
Anonymity: The platform ensures the anonymity of the Whistleblower, in accordance with the provisions of the EU Whistleblowing Directive and the German Act on the Better Protection of Whistleblowers. You can choose to reveal your identity or submit your report anonymously.
Report Details: When submitting a report, provide as much detail as possible, following the guidelines outlined in the EU Whistleblowing Directive and the German Act on the Better Protection of Whistleblowers. Include relevant dates, names, locations, and any supporting documents. The more information provided, the better our team can address the concern.
Confidentiality: Reports submitted through the Whistleblowing Platform are treated with the utmost confidentiality. Only authorized personnel responsible for investigating the matter, who are bound by confidentiality obligation, will have access to the information.
What to Report?
You are encouraged to report any activity that violates laws, ethical standards, or Company Policies. This may include, but is not limited to, fraud, corruption, bribery, financial misconduct, discrimination, harassment, safety violations, or any behaviour that compromises the well-being of our employees and the integrity of our organization.
Non-Retaliation Policy
We are committed to protecting Whistleblowers from any form of retaliation. If you choose to identify yourself when making a report, rest assured that your concerns will be handled discreetly, will only be accessed by authorized personnel, and you will be shielded from any adverse consequences.
Investigation & Follow-Up
Once a report is submitted, our dedicated team will promptly investigate the matter in accordance with the EU Whistleblowing Directive and the German Act on the Better Protection of Whistleblowers. We will keep you informed of the progress and take appropriate actions to address the issue. If you chose to remain anonymous, you can follow up on the investigation's status through the Whistleblowing Platform.
Thank you for your cooperation in making Telespazio Germany a place where transparency, accountability, and integrity flourish.
